Franco is a big-hearted, joyful dog who’s ready for his next chapter. He arrived as a stray puppy and found a home, but when a baby entered that household, he struggled with all the new changes. Now Franco needs a stable, adult-centered space where he can relax and settle in for good. Franco does best as an only pet, with children no younger than 15. He’s cautious around new people and thrives with slow introductions, but in time, he becomes loyal and deeply affectionate. He loves activity—think toys, long walks, and puzzles to challenge his mind—and being both housebroken and crate-trained, Franco will make that transition smooth for the right adopter. He’s still mastering impulse control, can get mouthy when excited, and has a history of guarding prized treats and toys. His new person should be experienced, patient, and ready to give him structure. Staff are on hand to help you understand what he needs for success. Franco is full of love, loyalty, and personality. With clear boundaries and a little understanding, he’ll be the ultimate companion in the right home. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
